Overcome Indigestion

Overcome Indigestion

By Shannon Sexton, Yoga+

It isn’t a pleasant scenario: your stomach is upset and it’s telling everyone in the room. You can apply your willpower and ignore it for a while (and hope that the people around you do the same), or you can pop a pill for temporary relief, but sooner or later indigestion will take its toll.

Why? Because, as ayurvedic expert Robert E. Svoboda explains, “Indigestion is the base of all physical disease, the condition from which all other conditions arise.” According to ayurveda, the key to good health is properly functioning agni, which in the form of digestive fire helps us assimilate nutrients and get rid of waste, or ama. Efficient digestion nourishes and sustains every tissue and organ in our bodies. When agni is balanced and strong, we’re blessed with:

• Efficient digestion
• Minimal toxic buildup
• Internal warmth
• Energy and vitality
• Clarity of mind
• Courage
• Robust health

But when agni is weak, digestion is incomplete and leaves behind toxins, which interfere with the flow of blood, lymph, and energy throughout the body. When we’re unable to rid ourselves of these wastes, ama accumulates and leads to disease. Warning signs include:

• Inefficient digestion (bloating, gas, constipation, diarrhea)
• Evidence of toxic buildup (coated tongue, unpleasant body odor, excess mucus, and foul-smelling, cloudy urine)
• Internal coldness
• Low energy
• A dull, forgetful, confused, unfocused mind
• Mental/emotional weakness
• Illness

The truth is, most of us could use a digestive tune-up.
